Background: To explore the relationship between vitamin D levels and risk of SARS-CoV-2 infection and its severity in children and adolescents, and provide a theoretical basis for clinical practice.
Methods: The PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, MEDLINE, and Cochrane Library databases were searched for comprehensive cohort and case-control studies on the association between childhood vitamin D deficiency and the risk and prognosis of coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19). The search period was set from December 1, 2019, to December 31, 2023.
Impact of Gut Microbiota and Inflammatory Cytokines on Immune Thrombocytopenia.

Article Synopsis
- Immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) is an autoimmune disorder possibly influenced by gut microbiota and inflammatory cytokines, but the relationships are not fully understood.
- A study utilized Mendelian randomization to explore the causal links between gut microbiota and ITP, finding 11 microbiota species that increase ITP risk and 12 that decrease it.
- The research identified CXCL10, CXCL5, and VEGF-A as key inflammatory cytokines mediating the effects of certain gut microbiota on ITP, suggesting new potential targets for treatment and prevention.
